Krissi Bates-Billings grew up in rural southeastern Colorado on her family’s fourth-generation crop farm. Geek tech (not including tractors and hay-balers) was in very short supply “in the sticks,” but Krissi was lucky enough to have a computer in her home. She began her path toward being a future geek when she taught herself Basic on her dad’s Tandy TRS-80.

On my way to a waaay early Nephrologist appointment. BTW, I have an even earlier appt. tomorrow am w/ my transplant team. My first 6 mo checkup without having been in hospital a single day! Yay! (Nephrologist = kidney doctor.)
Not often do two major parts of my life (international adoption and kidney disease) cross paths, but this news article out of Canada speaks to my heart (and kidney) in more than one way.

I'm a traveler of places & an adventurer of emotions. I converse with the world through social media & communicate with humankind through open-mindedness. I advocate for what I believe is right & embrace possibitarianism. I'm an optimistic realist & I learn more about myself the more I understand about others. I'm a giver of endless second chances & the wearer of a shirt-sleeve heart. I'm a reveler in chaos & I love my own idealistic, unwavering hopefulness that one day I'll figure myself out.
In my life I've been 180° and back again & I'm ever-aware of what I have yet to learn...
